Bush has let Rove and handlers run him ragged....
many people have said that Bush appears to have some physical or medical problem. Since 9/11, Rove and Karen and the rest have had him on the road campaigning like a mad man. Even when he went to Camp David or to Crawford, he was campaigning. Before 9/11, he was on vacation more than any president in history. But since then, some people will argue that he has over-compensated. But the over-compensation has been in campaigning, not developing poliices or solutions. Now, it appears his health is paying the price. He has not taken care of himself. And with his limited ability to give speeches and campaign, this has created a heavy burden for him. Just my opinion.

1. Good. Maybe he'll fall on his face again.
I think he is drinking!

2. Bush is not use to working hard and running for President is very hard
work. That's why he is awe of anyone who does work hard

3. George Bush is physically ill, perhaps in a near physical collapse....
...he should take rest or withdraw from the race now

5. Add the time and intensity of his coaching and education sessions.

When you listen to what you get with him...it's obvious that his handlers must feel a sense of panic to get him to articulate, create his own reply when they can't wire him, understand what the ulterior agenda is, but cloak it in little lies that get a favorable response from blind swallowers, plus bounce between lies when confronted.

Someone got him to stop e-nun-CI-A-TING in his strange way of speaking the language - who do we thank for that?

Poor guy - all he really wants to do is speak to controlled audiences of his adorers and give the same speech.

It must have been really hard to appear.

Yes, he's a very stressed candidate.

The Kerrys and Edwards seem to have a lot more energy. And no one has talked about them being wired.

7. I had heard rumors
Edited on Sat Oct-16-04 09:51 AM by NinetySix
Perhaps Pre-Senile Dementia, or even a stroke, but I hadn't placed too much stock in them. Until I saw his taped, scripted thank-you to the Iraqi Survey Group (ISG) last night.

His thoughts, although supposedly scripted and videotaped at leisure, seemed rambling; he said things that I suppose were intended to seem folksy, but just seemed inappropriate (e.g., Iraq is hot, and coming from Texas I know about heat, but you don't have air conditioners there).

I wish I had a link to provide here, but I don't think I copied it down. I'll add it on edit if I find it.

Found it. Here it is:

8. My download was very jerky, but it sounded like technical difficulties...
...more so than Bush's speaking. I'd like to see and hear a link without the interference. But thanks for that.

9. I had no download issues
he was constantly, "uh"-ing, and "umm"-ing like he couldn't carry through his train of thought (or the sentences he was reading) to the end of the sentence.

Really pathetic. but that's usual for the little bushturd. He still doesn't look healthy.

10. Fuck him. He's a little pill-popping liar anyways
Edited on Sat Oct-16-04 12:16 PM by Gyre
Who's responsible for tens of thousands of innocent's deaths. Hope he goes straight to hell and comes back just long enough to report on how the weather is down there.

BTW, did I mention that I hope he spontanenously combusts?

12. Meme: Bush is not well, Cheney may end up being President.
The bulge under the jacket may be a Defribillator vest he will wear until after the election when he gets his Pacemaker/defribillator device surgery.
He has refused to take a physical until after the election which is suspicious.
